He is “just a meme now”, said some. Many others rolled their eyes, describing him as someone who still pops up online but doesn’t matter any more.

I’m glad (especially younger people) are waking up. I remember when I used to be in college like couple years ago, my classmates worship Andrew Tate which made me so uncomfortable as someone that is queer and knows he is homophobic. One of the many reasons why I dropped out.

Is most IRC’s chatroom active nowadays? I have been meaning to try other alternatives to Discord but always find them to be very hit and miss

Beside the triggers, I really did like the Steam controller. My favourite is the touchpad which makes noises which I associated with Fallout which is oddly pleasing to hear

My biggest bet is that Tai Ericson (The artist of that portrait) got Harry Potter second-hand somewhere which I sometimes see them in charity shops.

Refusing to use social media like Snapchat, Instagram & Twitter. Major downside is my generation is mostly using them so I know fewer Zoomers on the Fediverse but honestly, I would take that over me comparing my body to guy’s fitness picture and feeling insecure about it. Also, I barely interact with people I know in my high school and I to some extent, wish to be forgotten from them. Some really have messed with my mental health, that’s all I will say.

Also, Fedi.Video has some decent playlist of various video topics. I need to try use PeerTube more

One of the YouTuber, JacksFlim, does a newsletter called ‘Credit The Creators’ at Substack (I wish it elsewhere than that god-awful platform but I digress) which every week, it shows few videos created by small creators which you vote for which one gets the featured in the next article.

What if we made a distro called Doors as a replacement for windows, but don’t call it a distro? We don’t even call it Linux. We just called it Doors.

So basically what Google did with ChromeOS? (Being quiet that it just a Linux distro) Yeah, no. I prefer distro that is transparent that it is Linux and doesn’t try to make out or as vocal that their still a Linux distro.

• “Normies” as I associate people who use that word a lot to be pretentious.
• “Lolcow” which has history of Kiwi Farm user using that word to describe someone and cyberbully as well as dox them.
• “Chav” as I feel classist to still use that term but as someone that’s both working-class and lives in a rough area in UK, it hard to not describe some people as that term as christ… they are aggressive, homophobic and transphobic.

• BlockTube: Allows you to block YouTube Channels and Video as using “Do Not Recommend Channel” doesn’t exactly work
• Bitwarden - Loves the auto-fill feature
• uBlacklist - More easier to block URL result on various search engine. Only use it as I can’t be arsed tried to learn how to manually make filter on uBlock and want something that I can block Daily Mail on my search with just a click. It’s just the job done so happy to use it.

Nope, they was abusive and controlling to me. I’m glad I did dump them via texts

I have low self-esteem and that’s from just people been shitty to me. I could go on but I don’t want to trauma dump (at least, try to prevent myself from doing it).

That being said, I’m planning to get therapy, go to more social events if I have the energy to do so and maybe next year, try get back to swimming. I stopped around when I was in lockdown in 2020 and I forgot about it since.

I will also say is that major reason why Steam has an monopoly is that they have invested their resources to streamline the PC gaming experience and also make gaming on Linux better as well as Steam controller which also allows us to remap control layout.

None the alternative does that and are just another DRM-Storefront. That’s my major pet peeve with Steam alternative like Epic Games Launcher. Closest we have is GOG for to be able to download offline installer and most the games are DRM-free. Otherwise, I just would rather buy games on Steam as it just works for me… 🤷

Both the wall and floor looks like someone played The Sims 3 and repeat same pattern for everything inside one room

I can’t imagine the alternative be less stretchy compared to Pornhub, not that Pornhub isn’t a sketchy site in the first place

but I’m not sure USB-C output exists.

Not that I’m aware of, no. It’s either HDMI or (if you getting the older Blu-ray player) one has Composite or Component output.

Now I’m also questioning the need of BluRay/image upgrade, as it shouldn’t be too expensive.

You can always get it second-hand which would be cheaper than getting it new and make sure you don’t connect to the internet.

Also as someone that has BluRay player, I prefer BluRay over DVD disc for it being in HD and also, it can still play DVDs. If you already have BluRay collection or don’t mind spending a bit to get it on that format, go for it.

For people who want to read YouTube’s statement about updating the guidelines

• Graphic gaming content. In addition to our existing guidelines around graphic gaming content, we will age-restrict an additional small subset of video game content featuring realistic human characters that focuses on scenes of torture or scenes of mass violence against non-combatants. We’ll consider several factors when reviewing this type of content such as:

• Duration - If the graphic scene is sustained (rather than fleeting). For compilation videos, we’ll now consider the cumulative duration of all of the graphic clips combined.

• Prominence - If the violent imagery is zoomed-in or the main focus of the scene

• Realistic human characters - If the violence is happening to a character that looks like a real human

I just know that age-restricted videos don’t usually perform well and I have a bad feeling that we will see more censoring to make the video “monetizable”. I watched some gameplay or even review which has gameplay footage in the background so I’m concerned if that would affect review as well as I like knowing roughly what the gameplay would be like

They made “datapack” which is a way of playing with mods without having to use third-party mod loaders like Forge and Fabric but (don’t quote me on this as I’m not a mod developer) it’s not as powerful compare to the mod loaders.
